DEAR BRETHREN: The time of
the seventh annual meeting Of the
Audrain County Christian Missionary
Coz peration draws nigh. Below
will be found the programme. Not
w~ithstandiDg the disadvantages under
which we have labored during the
past year much work has been done.
When we meet at Liberty we will be
able to report all debts paid and
some money in the treasury. This
is certainly encouraging and puts us
in acondition to do a better work
during the ensuing year, provided we
have a good representation at the APP
preaching meeting, which we earn.
estly entreat you to attend. Your
good wishes alone will not suffice, we
need your personal presence and
counsel. You will not only benefit
the meeting bat it will be of benefit
to you. Look over the accompanying
programmed mo pains have been spar
ed to make it a feast of good things.
Several prominent ministers have
moved into this county since our last
meeting and they will speak to us
and work with us.
Visitors who are coming by rail
will get off at Thompson Station,
which is only three miles from Liber-
ty Church. The brethren will meet
such persons with suitable convey
ances and will gladly entertain all
who come.
There sre a few who are behind in
the payment of their pledges; we
feel that such do not want to be re-
ported delinquent. If they oannot
pay now let them bring the amour,
to the meeting. We will depend up
on the collectors to do their duty.
We hope that all viii take a deer
interest in advertising the meeting
and in pressing its claims. Let pub
lie announcements be made in all o
our county churches. Brethren, LEI
us work while it is day, for the nigh,
cometh when no man can work.
